Figure 8 Race tickets to be sold in person only; per-person limit reduced to six
Summary
After 2025 sellout in under 45 minutes, the Fair Board voted 5–2 to require in-person-only ticket sales for the 2026 Figure 8 Race and reduced the per-person ticket limit from 10 to 6.
The Teton County Fair Board voted to sell Figure 8 Race tickets in person only for 2026 and lowered the per-person ticket limit to six, seeking to give more local residents a chance to buy tickets after the 2025 event sold out quickly. Meredith moved to adopt Option 1 (in-person sales only) and to set the ticket limit at six; Amy seconded.
The recorded vote was five in favor — Marybeth, Britney, Meredith, Mikey and Amy — and two opposed — Hannah and Elaine. Board minutes note that 2025 tickets sold out in less than 45 minutes, prompting the change. The board also discussed staffing implications for any in-person sales period and noted the potential need for additional staffing during high-demand initial sales.
